ITEM 1 - 2009 Astronaut Glove Challenge Competition held on Nov. 19 - kSC (REPLAY)
The 2009 Astronaut Glove Challenge, part of NASAs Centennial Challenges Program,
was conducted at the Astronaut Hall of Fame facility near NASAs Kennedy Space Center, Fla.,
on Nov. 19. The nationwide competition focused on developing improved pressure
suit gloves for astronauts to use while working in space. During the challenge,
inventors tested the gloves to measure dexterity and strength during operation
in a glove box which simulates the vacuum of space. Centennial Challenges
is NASAs program of technology prizes for the citizen-inventor. The winning
prize for the Glove Challenge is $250,000 provided by the Centennial Challenges Program.

ITEM 2 - NASA KENNEDY REAPS BENEFITS FROM SOLAR POWER FARM KSC (REPLAY)
The electricity thats being used at NASAs Kennedy Space Center, Fla., now is partly
supplied by the space agencys first large-scale solar power generation facility.
NASA, Florida Power & Light Company and SunPower Corporation executives formally
commissioned a one-megawatt facility on Nov. 19 and used the occasion to announce
plans to pursue a new research, development and demonstration project at Kennedy
to advance Americas use of renewable energy.
The facility is the first element of a major renewable energy project currently
under construction at Kennedy. The solar farm covers five acres and generates the
equivalent of enough electricity to power about 110 homes. A larger, 10-megawatt
solar power facility, which now is being built on a nearby Kennedy property, will
supply power to Florida Power & Lights customers when its completed in April 2010.
At Thursdays commissioning ceremony, Kennedy Center Director Bob Cabana and FPL
Vice President and Chief Development Officer Eric Silagy announced plans to
establish a permanent renewable energy research and development center at Kennedy
along with a new solar facility that would expand the 10-megawatt generating
capability up to 100-megawatts.

ITEM 3 - NASA CAMERA THAT SAVED HUBBLE SPACE TELESCOPE ARRIVES AT SMITHSONIAN JPL (REPLAY)
After logging more than 15 years in space aboard NASAs Hubble Space Telescope,
the Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 became the latest artifact to join the
National Air and Space Museum in Washington. The instrument became known as
"The Camera That Saved Hubble" because it provided the optical fix to an improperly
shaped primary mirror, allowing the space telescope to go on and achieve its ambitious
and dramatic goals of imaging the cosmos in visible light. Hubble's most prolific
camera is currently on display in the National Air and Space Museum's Space Hall.
